Mustard and Herb Dressing

At the risk of repeating myself, I can't recommend making your own salad dressings at home highly enough. Not only do you avoid the preservatives that are present in store bought varieties, you really don't lose much time and the taste of fresh dressing is far superior besides.

This zesty dressing is a snap to whip up and adds a nice punchy contrast to salads with fresh crunchy vegetables like carrots and cucumbers.
